Communicating with Your Child's Teacher
 
When there is something you wish to discuss with your child’s teacher, please send an email or a note to the teacher requesting a time to meet.  Teacher emails are available at ps39.org/staff.  Our teachers have dedicated time to communicate with parents every Tuesday from 2:40- 3:30 pm.  If you need assistance contacting a teacher, please contact our Parent Coordinator, Rudi Ganz.

Visitor Procedures
For the safety and security of the entire PS 39 community, we ask all visitors – including parents- to follow our visitor procedures carefully.

• All visitors to the school MUST use the Main Entrance to enter the building and sign in with our Safety Agent, Ms. Sealy, located in the office immediately to the left when you enter.
• Please show photo ID and sign in, even if you think the Safety Agent should recognize you.
• Always exit through the main doors at the front of the building.  All other doors are armed and an alarm will sound if you attempt to exit.

School Nurse & Medication
A full-time Department of Health nurse is located in room 100B (NOTE: NEW LOCATION). If a child is ill or injured during school hours, he or she will be sent to the nurse’s office. Parent will be contacted anytime a child visit's the school nurse.

School staff members, including the nurse, are not allowed to administer any type of medication to any child unless a doctor’s order is provided on a 504 Medical Administration form.   Please visit the Health Services page on the NYC Department of Education's website for more information.  This form must be completed by a physician, signed by the parent and given to the school nurse before any medication can be brought to the school and/or administered.
